Interest Check | Character Bin
A relative's death is always sad.... But is it really? What if you barely knew the relative? What if you were able to gain billions of dollars from their death? Is their death still sad to you?
"Congratulations! You've been selected to participate in The Inheritance Games! By taking part in The Inheritance Game, you have the chance to inherit the massive Lovelle fortune..."
Many people have that one relative that's rich, you're not exception to this. Granted, you probably don't know him that well. You've heard rumors about him, saw him in the family pictures, and maybe you've even met him once or twice, but the point is, you're not close. Christopher Lovelle was always a mysterious man in the family, and wasn't the most popular. The only thing most people in the family knew about him was that he was a billionaire with no immediate family. He was known as eccentric, strange, and nobody in the family really wanted to be close to him. Which is why it stunned you when you received a letter informing you of his death. Why would you get notice of his death?
And why are you eligible to receive his entire inheritance?
Whatever the case, intrigued by the inheritance, you decide to participate in The Inheritance Game.
What awaits you is a series of puzzles that you must solve, and to win the inheritance, you must be the first to figure out the final answer. But of course, you're not alone. Competing with the members of your own family, you must navigate this game of greed, false relationships and distrust to outsmart everyone else. Who will you trust? Who will you abandon? Will greed win over your moral compass?
Let The Inheritance Game begin....

Character Information
For your character sheet, please be detailed! Especially in the personality section, don’t just list off adjectives. Go into detail. Also, it would be much appreciated if you could underline, bolden, or do something to the CS skeleton to make it easier to read.
Once your character has been approved, go ahead and post it to the Character Bin. Please do not post in the character bin unless you have been accepted. The character bin is for accepted characters only, applications should be done in the OOC.
The "Answer"
The answer has NOT been chosen yet! If you would like your character to become the answer, you're more than welcome to apply for that position. In order to do that, you must have that character accepted beforehand. Once your character has been accepted, please fill out the following form and PM it to me. I will select an answer based on what I believe would fit into this roleplay. Applying to be the "answer" doesn't guarantee you that position, but I will definitely consider it.
Families
This is most definitely optional! But if you would like your characters to have a prior relationship before this game (Like a family, or a something like that) Please just post this in the OOC: [Character name] is seeking a [family member title]. You know like, Bob is seeking a daughter. Mary is seeking a spouse. Stuff like that. I'll put all of that up here, so we'll know who wants to be in a family or something!
This OOC is a work in progress! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Yay!

Roleplay Rules
- Swearing is allowed, but keep it in moderation.
- Characters cannot be a direct descendant of Christopher Lovelle because he doesn't have children.
- No godmodding. Period.
- Absolutely no Mary-Sues or Gary-Stus. Characters must be flawed!
- This is a high casual roleplay so please post a minimum of two paragraphs. While length is nice, quality over quantity! Do your best, I love reading people's writing!
- Please use good grammar. Although I'm not a grammar nazi, I would very much prefer good grammar that makes things easy to read. Too many grammar mistakes distract from the writing.
- Please try to post at least once every three days.
- I am your benevolent goddess... In this roleplay, at least. Listen to me, as my word is LAW! Yeah!
- Murder and death will be strictly prohibited in this roleplay. Acts of sabotage will be allowed in moderation.
- Use common sense and courtesy. No fighting in the OOC! We're all friends here.
- If you're going to be gone for an extended period of time, or you want to drop, please just tell me!
- You're allowed to discuss puzzles and clues in the OOC, but any knowledge gained in the OOC does not translate into IC knowledge. Please please please please PLEASE no metagaming!
- Say something in the OOC at least once in a while! I like to get to know who I roleplay with, I'm sure others do too.
The Inheritance Game Rules
- Everyone will receive puzzles. The goal will be to collect as many clues as possible to solve the puzzles and figure out who the "answer" is. The winner will receive the inheritance.
- The "answer" will be a person among the contestants. The players' goal will be to figure out who the "answer" is.
- Everyone is going to work in assigned pairs. Although cooperation is okay, you will not gain any additional money for lending aid to anyone.
- You must live on the Lovelle Estate during the game.
- People must come up with their answer and reasoning by the deadline.
- If no one gives the correct answer, the "answer" will receive the inheritance. Therefore, the goal of the "answer" will be to confuse the others and try to get them to guess wrong.
